Factors To Consider When Hiring A Mobile Wedding DJ

By Katy Kline


Your wedding day is one of the most important days in your life. That means that you will want things to go right and for your guests and family to have the best time possible. One of the ways you can do this is by ensuring that the quality of music played during the occasion is suitable. You can hire a mobile wedding DJ as they specialize in providing musical entertainment during parties. You need to take into consideration several factors when hiring these professionals.

You must know how much money you are willing to pay for a Disc Jockey. While new and upcoming professionals may be more willing to take a lower pay, more experienced professionals will require a higher pay. Different professionals charge different amounts, so it is advisable to look around first and compare costs before choosing who to hire.

If you know the date of the party, then make reservations as early as possible. You will avoid the disappointment of failing to get a skilled professional, which may happen if you wait until the last minute to hire a professional. Reservations can normally be made weeks or even days ahead of the actual date of the event.

You should ask the Jockey whether they will bring their own equipment or they expect you to provide the equipment. If they bring their own equipment then the cost of hiring them will go up. If they are bringing their own equipment, you can ask if they will have back-up gear in case something goes wrong with the music system during the event.

Find someone who can play the choice of music you want. You can provide a playlist or you can let the Jockey custom make a playlist for you, based on your instructions. Also, if there are any songs you do not want played at the event, let the Jockey know well in advance. Inform the Jockey if you want guests to be allowed to make special requests or to sing during the party.

Ensure that the Jockeys you choose will look presentable at your event. They should also be well mannered and respectful towards your guests. They should also arrive on time, before the event starts so that they can have ample opportunity to set up their equipment before guests start arriving. Remember to ensure that the professional gets a meal during the reception. But if you will not be giving them a meal, let them know in advance so that they can make their own arrangements for food and drink.

You can ask the Jockey if they can perform other responsibilities at your event. Some Jockeys are also skilled master of ceremonies, who will make your event fun. You can attend an event held by the Jockey you want to hire so as to review their services.

You can opt to hire a mobile wedding DJ who works with a company or one who runs their own business. The advantage of going for a company is that there are multiples Jockeys you can choose from, so you can always get a replacement when the one you requested can't make it. Individual Jockeys have the advantage of providing you with better quality services.
